Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around obtaining a specific formatting of the bigoplus symbol in LaTeX, as presented in Knapp's text, Basic Algebra. Participants are exploring the correct LaTeX code to achieve the desired appearance of the symbol, focusing on the placement of the subscript.

Discussion Character

  • Technical explanation

Main Points Raised

  • Peter expresses a desire to replicate the bigoplus symbol from Knapp's text and shares his attempt using the LaTeX code \bigoplus_{ (e,f) } \mathbb{K} (e, f), noting that the subscript appears incorrectly positioned.
  • Another participant suggests an alternative code, \bigoplus{}_{(e,f)}\mathbb{K}(e,f), which produces a similar output but does not resolve Peter's issue.
  • Peter acknowledges the suggestion and expresses gratitude for the help, indicating that he is still seeking a solution.
  • Evgeny provides a link to an external resource that may contain relevant information, although it includes unquoted math delimiters.
  • Peter references the link again, indicating he had difficulty finding previous discussions on the topic.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants are exploring different LaTeX codes, but there is no consensus on a definitive solution to achieve the desired formatting of the bigoplus symbol.

Contextual Notes

The discussion highlights the nuances of LaTeX formatting and the specific requirements for symbol presentation, which may depend on individual interpretations of the desired output.

I wish to get a bigoplus symbol like the one in Knapp's text, Basic Algebra, as follows:https://www.physicsforums.com/attachments/5395but when i use the Latex code

\bigoplus_{ (e,f) } \mathbb{K} (e, f)

I get the (e, f) in slightly the wrong place as here:

$$\bigoplus_{ (e,f) } \mathbb{K} (e, f)$$How can I get the same symbol as Knapp does?

Hope someone can help ...

I found that:

\bigoplus{}_{(e,f)}\mathbb{K}(e,f)

produces:

$$\bigoplus{}_{(e,f)}\mathbb{K}(e,f)$$

Thanks Mark ... appreciate the help ...

Peter, please see https://driven2services.com/staging/mh/index.php?posts/37450/. It has some unquoted math delimiters in the middle, but the information is relevant.

Thanks Evgeny ... I thought there was another post on the topic but couldn't find it ...
